A Tense Negotiation

(Freya's POV)Caroline sat across from me at The Moon's Shadow cafe, draped in her usual perfection. Her designer coat hung elegantly over her shoulders, and her makeup was pristine, not a smudge out of place. But her carefully maintained facade couldn’t hide the way her fingers drummed against the tabletop, betraying her nerves. That small sign of unease told me everything.I exhaled softly and pulled the agreement closer, skimming the lines carefully again. The sunlight streaming through the window highlighted the stark black ink, which seemed to demand compliance. Bella, my wolf, stirred uneasily inside me, her instincts prickling at the tension."You’ve read it enough," Caroline said, her voice clipped yet measured. She leaned forward slightly, trying to regain that commanding presence she was known for. "Surely, it’s not a difficult choice."I didn’t look up from the document. "I’m making sure I fully understand what I would be signing."Her lips pressed into a tight smile. "

Debts and Memories

(Freya's POV)Caroline’s smile stretched across her face like a mask. Her eyes stayed cold, calculating. “It’s for the best, Freya. Deep down, you know it is.”Her voice grated against my ears. I fought the urge to snap back, keeping my composure intact. I gathered my things, determined to leave before saying something I might regret.“Goodbye, Caroline,” I said, cool and distant. My fingers closed around the strap of my bag as I pulled it over my shoulder. “I’ll hold up my end, as I said.”Caroline opened her mouth, but whatever words she planned to speak, I didn’t wait to hear them. I turned on my heel, the scrape of the cafe's wooden chair legs screeching against the floor in my wake.The air outside was brisk, biting my skin as soon as I stepped out onto the street. I inhaled deeply, letting the cold air attempt to chill my tension. Bella paced inside me, unsettled, her anger simmering beneath my calm exterior.“That woman,” I muttered under my breath. Bella growled in agreem

Gentle Moments

(Caroline's POV)The lunchbox felt like a boulder in my hands as I stood there watching Aaron walk away. My breath hitched, my chest tight, but I forced my expression to remain calm. He hadn't even noticed my injured finger, the one I cut while carefully preparing his favorite sandwiches. The little bandage stung against my skin, but it was nothing compared to the sting of rejection."Miss Redwood." A voice snapped my attention back to reality. James Morrison stood there, his posture stiff, his tone polite but unyielding. "I'll escort you back to your territory now."I turned to him, holding my chin high. "I'll wait in his office, thank you. There are matters I need to discuss with him when he returns."Morrison's face didn’t change. His wolf’s energy, however, gave him away. He clearly didn’t like me being here. "No wolves from other packs are allowed in Alpha Aaron’s office unless he is present," he stated firmly, his voice even.I narrowed my eyes, holding his unblinking gaze.

Strained Bonds

(Freya’s POV)I woke slowly, the sound of the hum of the medical facility grounding me. Sunlight streaked through the curtains, warm against my skin. For a brief second, everything was peaceful. Then it hit me like a cold rush of water—I’d fallen asleep.My stomach twisted. Elder Katherine had been in the middle of one of her stories. How could I have just dozed off like that? She must have been waiting for me to wake, disappointed or worse.Bella let out a soft, pitiful whine in the back of my mind. She didn’t like the thought either. I sat up quickly, blinking the sleep away, feeling the flush of embarrassment rise to my cheeks. Then I noticed him.Aaron.He was seated a short distance away, his piercing golden eyes locked on me. His face didn’t reveal much, but I could feel his energy filling the space, calm yet unsettling."You’re awake," he said, his tone steady, neither kind nor cold."I…" My voice caught. I didn’t know what to say. Apologies tumbled over one another in my

Pride and Promises

(Aaron's POV)I stormed into my office, the door slamming shut behind me with a loud thud. My mood was dark, and Logan, my wolf, paced angrily inside me, his presence prickling at the surface. Disappointment and frustration churned within me.I yanked off my leather jacket and threw it onto the sofa without care. It landed in a crumpled heap, which only mirrored my chaotic thoughts.A sharp knock cut through the silence. "What is it?" I barked, my voice sharp and full of irritation.The door creaked open slightly, and James Morrison, my Beta assistant, stepped in cautiously. His movements were slow, deliberate, as though not to agitate the storm already brewing inside me."Alpha," he addressed me formally. His hands carried a polished lunchbox, and he carefully placed it on my desk as if it were something fragile. "This is from Miss Redwood. She left it for you before returning to her territory."At the mention of Caroline, my patience thinned further. I hadn't even looked at the

Pack Politics

(Caroline's POV)I stood across from Aaron in his office, the weight of the conversation pressing on my chest. His focus remained on the documents in front of him, each stroke of his pen precise and deliberate.The silence dragged on, so I finally spoke, keeping my tone light. "How is Elder Katherine doing? Has there been any change?"Aaron paused briefly before answering, his eyes still on the papers. "She's improving... slightly. The healers might move the surgery up.""That's wonderful news," I said softly, but my wolf stirred uneasily. This wasn’t what I wanted to hear. "I’d like to visit her—just a quick visit to check in on her."His reply was immediate, cutting through the air like a sharp blade. "No."I blinked, my composure slipping for a moment. I hadn’t expected the outright rejection. "I wouldn’t stay long, I promise. Elder Katherine and I always got along—""It’s not about that," Aaron interrupted, his tone firm. "She needs rest. Too many visitors could strain her r

Pack Politics and Pride

(Freya's POV)The whispers buzzed like a swarm of bees. It was impossible to not hear them, even if I wasn't a wolf with enhanced senses. Their words carried like arrows, hitting their mark no matter how much I tried to block them out."Does she think eating down here makes her look humble?" Jennifer Wilson, one of the junior wolves, said with a smirk to her companion, Mark Thompson."Looks more like she's avoiding the Alpha's table," Mark added, his voice loud enough for anyone in the room to hear. "Probably doesn’t have a choice since Caroline's practically taken her spot."Jennifer leaned closer to him, but her words came out clear as day. "Caroline is the real deal—complete package. Beautiful, strong bloodlines, and she saved his life. What has Freya done?"Mark shrugged. "Survived, I guess. Got lucky in an arranged mating. If you can call luck being cast aside like this."I chewed deliberately on my salad, refusing to let my expression falter. I wouldn't give them the satisf

A Bitter Meal and a Stern Lesson

(Freya's POV)Caroline held out the elegantly wrapped lunchbox again, her smile unwavering. The yellow ribbon caught the light, almost as bright as her determined expression."You really should eat," she said, her tone laced with concern that felt too calculated to be genuine. "These are specially prepared. Balanced meals, good for your... condition."Her eyes flicked briefly but pointedly toward my stomach. Bella, my wolf, growled softly within me, unsettled by her behavior. I tensed, inhaling sharply through my nose."I've already eaten," I replied, keeping my tone flat but firm. "And, as I said earlier, unnecessary gestures won’t change things, Caroline."For a split second, the corners of her mouth tugged downward. The crack was barely noticeable before her mask of politeness returned, but I saw it."Freya," she began, softening her voice even more, as though I were being unreasonable. "Aaron would be upset if you weren’t taking care of yourself. I know how busy you’ve been,

Territorial Instincts

(Caroline's POV)The air in the hallway of Northern Ridge Pack headquarters buzzed faintly with activity. Wolves passed by, heads low in respect as they acknowledged Aaron walking at my side. His presence alone was enough to command unwavering attention.Then I saw him – Daniel Rivers. He exited Freya’s office with a casual air, holding himself effortlessly as if he belonged there. His ease made my wolf stir with something sharp and opportunistic.Aaron stiffened instantly, the tension rolling off him in waves. His golden eyes narrowed on Daniel like a predator zeroing in on its prey.I seized the moment."Oh, isn’t that Daniel?" I remarked lightly, as though the observation had just entered my mind. My voice was calm, carefully casual.Aaron’s reaction? Immediate. His posture grew rigid. His lips pressed into a thin line, his jaw working as if to suppress something primal."He seems quite close to Freya these days," I added, my tone almost thoughtful.Aaron didn’t respond, but

A Broken Device and Shattered Trust

(Freya's POV)Aaron’s hands gripped my wrists tightly, his golden wolf eyes glaring down at me. His voice cut through the heavy air like a blade."I’ll ask you one more time," he growled. "What’s going on with you and Daniel Rivers?"I shot him a defiant look, refusing to give ground. "Nothing is going on. He’s my pack brother, nothing more."Aaron’s sneer deepened. His Alpha energy nearly suffocated me. "A pack brother who is unusually concerned about you," he said sharply, his tone dripping with hostility.My teeth clenched at the accusation in his voice. Anger rushed through my veins, drowning out any fear of his dominating aura. "And what about Caroline? She’s unusually concerned about you too. It's funny how you don’t question that!"The mention of Caroline landed like a direct hit. His grip slackened for a moment, surprise flashing across his face."What does Caroline have to do with this?" he demanded, his tone colder now, eyes narrowing.I let out a bitter laugh. I coul
